  The most important takeaway from this subject should be how 98% of people today believe they would have been immune to the indoctrination and/or stood up against the system

  As an American I felt our history books covered more on the rest of the world during WW2 but barely taught about Japanese Camps here in the U.S. during that time. Maybe 2 or 3 paragraphs, if that.

  The story of the polish officer that went to Auschwitz concentration camp, Pilecki is shocking. Important to remember people with such bravery.

  Video topic request:<br>I recently found out that there are radiation eating fungi in Chernobyl that arent just growing despite the radiation, but are actually thriving because of it. After doing a little research, apparently the radiation does something to their metabolism that makes them multiply faster, and these fungi arent just growing around the affected area, theyre actually growing on the graphite rods that held the nuclear fuel. I grew up hearing about how nature overtook the city and how animals were rapidly evolving to live with the radiation, but the idea that a fungus was actually feeding off radiation seemed like some internet bs. That being said, i think it would make for a fascinating episode to focus on the various ways that nature and humanity has adapted to deal with radiation, from our learning curve with our discovery of xrays to not so simple natural selection.

  I had a friend who was one of the British troops who were first to enter Bergen-Belsen. &nbsp;Even 60 years after the event, if it was ever mentioned his face set in stone. &nbsp;Goodnight and God bless, Jim.

  Thankyou for mentioning the Nowra Japanese Memorial and gardens. To any Japanese who cannot come to see the memorial please take heart that these gardens are beautiful and your ancestors are well cared for 💜🇦🇺

  My grandfather was the last US commanding officer before Dachau was returned to German control. My father grew up as a child in the camp. When he started there someone before him had ordered several buildings including crematorium to be destroyed. &nbsp;He refused and ordered them rebuild restored and kept so that they would not be forgotten. His last act before he left the camp was to rehang the front gate.
